Summary
And as her form in the sand became smaller and smaller, I couldn't take my eyes off of this young woman that lightened, like the moon itself, some pitch black years of my life. Erwin, the Scouts leader, was clutching my shoulder, trying to show me some sympathy. The car carried us further, back to the walls, back to the concrete cage, until she became a small dot on the cold, windy beach in September.Life had a dark sense of humor. The driver broke the heavy silence:
"You'll make a great teacher, Levi. And an even better undercover Scout."
"To teach what, Mike?" I frowned. "Some bullshit propaganda the Titan Party allows? Sickening manifestos to justify their gruesome murders? Or should I tell those children what philosophy really means, about free will, equity and liberation, when I know so well they will experience anything but that?"
"That's what we're fighting for, Levi." Erwin sighted. I continued to stare at that poor, sad, small dot, that never stopped waving me goodbye.
"I'm really leaving, dear." I wanted to say to her, as my last words,
"So as to always love
In this grief, so marvelous,
Of never keeping you.
Of never being able to allow this love to leave us dead"
